Cooler MasterNR200 White Mini-ITX PC Case, 330mm Horizontal Triple-Slot Mount GPU, 240mm|280mm AIO, SFX PSU 130mm, Compatible RX 7900 XTX|4080 Super, Vented Panels, DIY

I recently built a system around micro-ATX motherboard and micro-ATX case.At the time of choosing components, I seriously debated if I should go with mini-ITX.I love small cases but I didn't want to pay the premium for "going small" since SFF parts are usually more expensive.Little time have passed, and every single day, I was itching to switch to ITX platform, almost driving myself crazy.This would mean that I would have to spend more than $300 to get a mini-ITX mobo (~$120), NR200 case ($80), and SFF PSU ($120).That wasn't going to happen.Few days ago, I stumbled upon a post on this case and he said very few micro-ATX motherboards will actually fit in this case.By coincidence, one of those boards was the board in my system.Then, I found another post saying that somebody put a ATX PSU in this case without the bracket using zip ties.If everything works out, only extra expense I would have is for this case at $80.Time to discuss some details of the build.SystemAMD Ryzen 5 3600ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0Powercolor RX 5600 XT Red DragonCorsair Vengeance LPX 2X8GB 3200MHzSabrent Rocket Q 1TB NVMe M.2ARCTIC Freezer 7 X - CPU Cooler2 X 120mm White LED PWM fansAresgame 500W 80+ Bronze PSUCaseI chose this case for the clean look, relatively cheap price, and, of course, compatibility with my motherboard.Upon unboxing this case, I was very pleasantly surprised.1. Build quality - being heavy doesn't always mean high quality, but being light usually mean crap quality.This case is surprisingly heavy and solid2. Extras - tons of accessories included1 X 92mm PWM fan, 1 X 120mm PWM fan, 2 X fan grills, 3-way fan header splitter, mount for vertical GPU, small zip ties, and couple of velcro strapsFit / Compatibility / Build1. Motherboard - my micro-ATX motherboard (230mm X 201mm) barely fits in this case. Only 4 mounting screws meant for ITX boards, but I'm not too concerned since GPU is held in place with screws on PCI bracket.2. Connectors - front panel audio connector was too short for this motherboard. But I never, ever use it so no problem for me. Everything else fits and reaches just fine.3. CPU Cooler - CoolerMaster lists clearance up to 155mm, Freezer 7 X at 132.5mm easily fits.4. GPU - since my mobo is micro-ATX, I had to use bottom two slots of PCI bracket. This doesn't leave room to mount fans on the bottom of the case.5. PSU - my ATX PSU is mounted against front panel with daisy-chained zip ties. You can buy 3D-printed brackets to mount ATX PSU to NR200 from *bay, but this is additional cost and I'm cheap.6. Fans - used included fan splitter to mount 3 fans to a single fan header. 1 included 92mm as exhaust, 2 X 120mm fan on top of case also as exhaust. PSU fan will also exhaust to top of the case.Performance / ThermalsThe system is just as cool compared to my micro-ATX case with 5 X 120mm fans.Even though space is cramped, channeled airflow with everything exhausting through top really shines in this case.I haven't and have no plans to overclock my CPU past base PBO of 4.2ghz, idle (35C-45C), load (60C-72C), plenty cool for my usage.GPU is very close to bottom mesh panel and gets plenty of fresh air, idle (32C - 38C), load (60C-70C).Overall this turned out much better than what I had expected.Case looks AMAZING, no regrets at all.Hope some of you find this information useful!

I’ve built in several ITX cases, but none as easy as this one. Theres enough space once the panels are off that you will easily be able to position the components as long as you follow the guides.The custom pieces of this case (toolless mounting for SSD’s and Fans) are easy to use and well made. Additionally there are filters EVERYWHERE which are easily removable.The front panel little holder included made putting those pieces in a cinch.Temperatures with just the included fans are relatively good, capping out at about 70c for my Ryzen 5500 and 6650xt.Lastly, but certainly not least, it looks awesome for a minimalist desk shelf PC. I cannot recommend this case enough, especially at the price.

Really nice mini itx case, especially for those new to mini itx building. It's nice and small at 20L or so, but still roomy enough for some larger pieces. With a bracket (which will probably have to be found for around $20) you can even fit a full size ATX power supply.Some extra pros:- Side, top, and front panels are completely screw less for really easy access to the inside. (the bottom panel has just one screw)- Comes with a couple fans, though one is a little smaller and I didn't really find a place for it. The larger fan is near silent though.

I originally reviewed this and gave it 4 stars. After spending a few months with it and having to get into the case to swap out parts, including a CPU fan, I have changed my rating to 5. The ease of dissassembly and the ability to access both sides of the mother-board, the top, the front and bottom with a simple snap is nice. With a little effort it is possible to install 2 x 90 fans on the back, 2 x 120 on the top, 2 x 120 fans on the bottom. I've only installed 1 x 120 (top), 2 x 90 on the back and a high-profile CPU fan.There seem to be two different versions. I got the NR200, which seems to be newer. All the materials are solid metal. Includes two very quiet fans (90mm and 120 mm). The mounting location for the power-supply is odd as you can't get to the on-board hard-switch after the power supply is installed. The installation locations for the 2.5" and 3.5" HD is also odd and not intuitive.I installed an Asus B550I mini-ITX mother-board with a I7-11700K with low-profile cooling (Noctua), two Noctua 90 mm case fans and the 120 mm case fan (included), two 2.5" SSDs and a GeForce 1650TI video-card. A three-fan splitting cable was included. The ability to install a 2-slot video-card was the whole reason I got this case and for that purpose it has worked well.After it was all installed it looks great and performs well and the vented panels are easy to pop-on /pop-off and allow access all around. I expected more ports on the front (USB-C for example). Also no way to install an internal CD /DVD /Blueray drive.

I had a great time building an office PC for my wife using the NR200 case. I love the modularity, compact form factor, whisper quiet airflow, and ease of access. It’s a plain monolithic box with no aesthetic frills. However, that suits my purpose just fine. I have only one minor complaint regarding the fragile clips that the side panels snap into. One of these broke on me during the build process. Thankfully, I found affordable, sturdy replacements on Etsy (3D printed). Problem solved!
